Define Plan Services

Overview

 A service refers to any billable or non-billable component of a plan or non-subscription offering. Service types include:

  • Activation
  • Recurring
  • Recurring Arrears
  • Usage-based
  • Order-based
  • Cancelation
  • Minimum fee

There are generic services that are included by default in your Aria implementation. If you do not want these generic services to appear on your list of services, or when you create a plan, navigate to Configuration > Client Settings > Miscellaneous Settings > Show Generic Services and select False.

Note: You should not adjust this setting from True to False if there are plans with generic services assigned.
